Collections - Hide items from Library view

[frasderp]

Describe your suggested feature

Similar to Plex, I would like the option to hide items in a Collection from the Library view. I have a number of related comic runs that clutter the library, and would prefer to group them as a result (spin-offs etc).

This feature is very useful for me too, if you could add it, we would really appreciate it.

I'm not a programmer, and here's just a thought. If it's wrong, please ignore it.

First, Komga definitely knows how many collections it has and what their names are. Otherwise, it couldn't show the information in the 'Collections' tab.
Second, every comic definitely knows whether it belongs to a collection, so it can be shown in the collection page. Alternatively, Komga can query the database and add a tag to those comics.

Now, when a user clicks the Library tab:

1. Query the database and get a list of all the collections, such as [C1, C2, C3, ...].
2. Query the database and get a list of all the comic books and series, such as [a, b, c, d, e, f, ...].
3. Find out the list of comics that have a collection tag, such as [a, d, f, ...].
4. Subtract the list of comics with a collection tag from the total list: [a, b, c, d, e, f, ...] - [a, d, f, ...] = [b, c, e, ...].
5. Finally, the Library tab should show all the collections and the remaining comics, such as [C1, C2, C3, ..., b, c, e, ...].

Sorry for bothering you. As a big fan of Komga, I just want to share some of my personal experiences, and I do hope it becomes more popular with a better user experience.

I’d just like to add I would love this feature. I’ve got a couple series I follow that have an absurd number of one shots and minis. It ballon’s my library view by almost 75% and makes it very difficult to navigate. This would fix that issue perfectly.

I'm also asking for this feature to be added

I'm also asking for this feature to beFor example, there are three manga in the series Makibao. There are two types of manga called Rurouni Kenshin. I would like to display these titles together in a library.
The ideal form would look something like this: I would like a browser function that allows me to organize the items included in a collection as a collection. I'm looking for such a feature added
